Are you suffering from couple envy? Do you wonder if there are any cute and interesting guys out there and wish there was a way to meet them? Are you not interested in (or just bored of) one-night stands but don’t want to get married right away? If you answered “yes” to any of these, GB’s speed dating is for you.

The way it works: You show up, sit down, and over the course of one hour, have 15 “mini-dates” of four minutes each. Four minutes is just long enough to get beyond “Hello” and get to know each other’s interests and expectations. It’s also short enough so that if you don’t “click” with the

guy sitting opposite you, you’re soon going to be meeting someone else in a few minutes. After your 15 mini-dates, you will be given a piece of paper with a list of all the men you met earlier. If you want to have a repeat (longer) date with any of the men you met, you put a tick against his

name/number. If a guy you “ticked” also ticked you, your contact details will then be exchanged. That is, only if both guys are interested in meeting again will numbers or emails be swapped.

It sounds pretty complicated but it’s actually quite simple. (If you’ve seen the movie “Hitch” you’ve seen how speed dating works.) GB simply acts as the facilitator. Ever been on a bad date? Two hours of food and conversation can seem like two years. A good date, on the other hand, can go on all day and night and still leave you wanting more. We hope lots of you will come for our first speed dating event. You might have a couple of blah or boring four-minute dates, but there’s always the potential that you’ll meet Mr. Right.

So, if you’re romantic or optimistic or adventurous or just curious, come to GB’s Sunday Brunch with Speed Dating on 19th May 13 at Zouk.
